No, I think the numbers are current. I remember back in October, the numbers for Mick's album were just under 2000. So it must have sold another 1000 since then. I think LIB was about 50,000. So it must have sold another 8000 or so since then, mostly over the holidays.

I think there are 2 DVD discs on LIB. That's why it's been certified platinum, even though it's only sold 58,000. It's the same with The Very Best Of Fleetwood Mac set. There are 2 CDs, so the numbers are doubled for RIAA certification purposes. The VBOFM CD probably will go multi-platinum by the end of this year, since it's still selling slowly, but steadily.
